Tires on BMW 760 (2024)

[North-Texan]

I just found out that my front tires have gone completely bad (can see white lines on the side wall) and looks like there is an issue with the alignment.
I brought this car as CPO 11 months ago and the Dealer had put in 2 new tires (it had 7000 miles on it) as the earlier tires were worn out.
The tires are now gone again in just 9000 miles and it looks like there is a major problem with alignment which they did not fix when selling the car CPO 11 months ago.
1. Do I have any recourse with the Dealer? They just slapped 2 new tires without checking the underlying problem as the previous tires had gone out at 7000 miles.
2. I don’t see Runflats on my car. Is that correct? I have 21s that came with the car. I have the Bridgestone Turanza which don’t seem to be Runflat. My previous 7 which was 2014 750Li had runflats. How are we supposed to handle situations without a spare tire when our tires go out?

I also don’t see anyone (Costco or Discount Tire) selling Runflats for my car. Is that correct?

Probably does have an issue with alignment, weird they did not do it when mounting new tires.

I also have the non-runflat Turanzas, and my rears are going out but I have 16k miles. You had mentioned you want to convert to runflat, is that correct? If so you should change all 4 and of course check alignment etc.

It’s a shame that these fires last only 16-20K miles.
Looks like BMW does not put Runflats on these cars

It is odd, but maybe its the heft of the car that is wearing out the tires?

What do you mean? Runflats are certainly available on this car. I had to go out of my way to find one that did NOT have runflats as I had terrible luck with my previous gen 750i with runflats (one sidewall blowout per month on average until I sold it out of frustration)

oh... in that case i'll vanish in shame very quietly...

Unfortunately nobody is selling Runflats for the 760 (staggered setup). That includes Costco, Discount Tire and even the BMW Dealers.

I"ve recently done an alignment on my 7 series. It was way off, so hopefully that helps with the longevity of tires. Also moved to 22 inch wheels, which look awesome, but options for tires are limited still.

I recently replaced my original 21" Turanza tires after 31000 miles on my 2023 760i. Due to an alignment problem, I got down to seeing inside cord in the outboard edges of both front tires. My rear tires were replaced earlier due to picking up a nail, requiring replacement.
I am pleased with the Turanzas; relatively quiet, decent performance in everyday driving.
